sounds exactly like the TV show dangerous. 3 robbers. 1 woman... I can't believe these knuckle heads can hit the same place over and over and still dont get caught. doesn't say much for our police force.

Whats the world comin to, for cryin out loud :P . I hope these label bandits get whats comin to em, my deapest sympathies go out to the liner & its owner. Police out there pullen ova peeps for drivin around ( cruisin ) when this craps goin on ( not sayin po po cant do their job, but maybe focus on more serious things like theft! ), seems to me you can get away with theft easier than any type of road infringment :devil: .

So heart breakin :D .

You will find many of the shops that get done over just repair the shops back to the original state instead of adding extra security features so they are just as easy the 2nd and 3rd time as they were the first time. Just like a certain servo in Granville that gets done over every 2nd month because they put the ATM back in the same position right up against the front window in plain view without even being bolted down to anything. It's easier/quicker to just take the whole ATM then it is to swipe your visa card and wait for it to spit out the 50's.

I used to managed CBAs ATM portfolio ....and can say most banks have a strict security code when it comes to the placement of their ATMs, and every time I used to see one placed at the front of a shop i used to cringe and count down the days before I got a call saying it got ram raided.

but you know... a few hundred grand to them is nothing in the scheme of things! And the owners of the shop are happy coz they still collect their rental and have their shop front repaired within a week and it's business as usual.

How smart are these theives they say.

The possibilty or likelihood of you getting pulled over in that car once a cop see's you is greater then any quick/new/stock vehicle, then their plans are buggered.

I'm curious to why they chose a modd'd skyline..sure there any easy target, but so are commondore v8's??

So sad to see that r33, couldve been any one of us...

well the ramraid vehicle of choice used to be pajero and rangies etc when this all kicked off 10 years ago. then they started using 4wd for the ramming and wrx for the getaway. for me it would have to be an F250 for the win. lol

Now we're talking - 'Ram raid vehicle of choice' thread.

I'd go for a Dodge SRT-10 (Pickup truck with a Viper engine!)... I saw one of those in Syd the other day... beast - pity its built like a Mitsubishi :laugh:

      just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.

      My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.

      To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
